MY EVALUATION For any film to be successful, it has to possess certain elements. These elements include cinematography: which involves good camera work, unique or inventive shooting styles and appropriate lighting to set a tone. Quality actors who will portray and express the film characters, appropriate location, character and story development, top notch directing and quality sound and sound FX. A good film is any film which not only entertains but gives the audience something to take away and think about, so it could remain in their hearts. The idea of “Victoria my dear” came as a result of my desire to do a film people can really relate and connect with. Society presently faces different difficulties, from financial, moral to medical issues and cancer happens to be one the its major challenges, and my film “Victoria my dear” shows just how cancer affects not just the person dealing with the disease, but also his/her family and loved ones. “Victoria my dear” is a short emotional film about a man (Gregorio Salvatore) who is diagnosed with an incurable disease (cancer) and then faces the uphill task of telling his wife (Victoria). Gregorio being a laid back, calm figure thought it wise to write a letter to his wife, Victoria, telling her the truth about his visit to the doctor because he had previously lied to her about his condition just to ease her worries. In order to get the audience to relate with this film, I had to carefully plan the plot: develop the story in such a way that it slowly builds up till it reaches a climax point. The Hollywood movie, “Bucket list” acted as a reference point for me because my film had very close similarities to it: the storyline of both films could be linked together, both having a strong emotional pattern and cancer being their major subject. I developed the characters in the film in a manner that each had a significant role
